Mourners, most of whom stood in the rain because of over crowdedness, attend a vigil for the victims of the Tree of Life Synagogue mass shooting at Soldiers and Sailors Memorial Hall and Museum in Pittsburgh, on October 28, 2018. After his surrender, the suspect was taken to nearby Allegheny General Hospital for treatment of his gunshot wounds. Federal prosecutors charged him with 29 criminal counts including violence and firearms offences, and violating US civil rights laws. He did not enter a plea. Courtroom deputies freed one of his hands from cuffs so he could sign paperwork.

"I know that she's very grief-stricken, I can imagine, and my heartfelt condolences go to her and everybody in that congregation regardless of politics", Conway said.

"And to be more violent about it, rather than trying to calm and heal".

Suspect Robert Bowers faces 11 counts of obstruction of religious beliefs resulting in death, 11 counts of use of a firearm to commit murder, four counts of obstruction religious beliefs resulting in bodily injury and three counts of use of a firearm during a violent crime.

He faces at least 23 state charges, including homicide, attempted homicide and aggravated assault against police officers. "Ain't that a kick in the trousers?"

Cohen, who is also Jewish and a member of Tree of Life synagogue, said he stopped by Bowers' room.

According to Cohen, he and Bowers had a brief conversation at the hospital.

"The last place you would expect (this) is to be in America", Greenberg said, "the country which was the best country for the Jews in the history of the identity".

Judge Mitchell said a public defender would be appointed to Bowers, who was represented Monday by two attorneys in the federal public defender's office. He is also accused of posting antisemitic rants on social media.
